Apply for Resident Privilege Cards at either the Renaud Spirit Center or the Parks and Recreation Office. Residents ages 16 and under must be accompanied by a parent or guardian to obtain a card. The cards expire two years from the date that they’re issued. Lost cards may be replaced for $5.

Transforming America: The G.I. Bill of Rights Joan Musbach The World War II draft brought Americans from all walks of life together and into the same foxhole for a common shared experience and purpose. Then the G.I. Bill made it possible for the survivors to get an education and accomplish good things for themselves, their families and their country. After World War II the American Dream was transformed, unimagined levels of prosperity were reached and foundations were laid for the lifestyle and life expectations that we have today.

On the first Wednesday of every month from 6–7 p.m., meet Dr. Scott Grogan, a board-certified Chiropractic Physician, by the desk in the fitness center for answers to your health and fitness-related questions. Dr. Grogan graduated from Logan College of Chiropractic in 2011, and then earned a Masters of Sports Science and Rehabilitation from Logan in 2012. Dr. Grogan also completed his full body certification in Active Release Technique in 2011, giving him a unique approach to the treatment of patients by addressing not only the joints but the surrounding soft-tissue as well.

Dr. Grogan utilizes the “joint-by-joint” approach to patient care, which emphasizes the impact that the kinetic chain (ankles, knees, hips, shoulders etc.) can have on the entire body.

Through functional analysis Dr. Grogan will locate the true dysfunction and source of the problem to arrive at an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan. Through mobilization of the joints and by placing a heavy emphasis on soft-tissue treatment and rehabilitation, his goal is to provide fast, effective care and empower patients to take control of their own health.

Dr. Grogan has a passion for athletics. He is very involved with the Crossfit community, and he has both competed with and treated competition teams. He’s also served as the team physician for community college athletics, American Legion baseball, and for the Ballwin Race Series.

Congratulations, you’ve found it! Geocaching is a worldwide game dedicated to Global Positioning System (GPS) users. The game involves a GPS user hiding “treasure” and publishing the exact coordinates so other GPS users can join the “treasure hunt”. The only rules are: If you take something from the geocache, you must leave something in its place and you must log your visit on the log sheet. GPS coordinates can be found at www.geocaching.com.

On this special International Geocaching Day, collect the special clue at each site in O'Fallon's parks, solve the puzzle and exchange for a prize at the Renaud Spirit Center on August 18 or 19 during normal business hours. No registration is necessary for this free event. For more information, please call 636-379-5575.

Learn to Swim O

’Fallon’s Learn to Swim program is built on teaching aquatic and safety skills in a logical progression. Our goal is to teach children and adults how to swim and be safe in and around the water.

The program is composed of 11 course levels:

Aqua Learning: Level: Preschool: Preschool Plus: Level 1: Level 2: Level 3: Level 4: Level 5: Level 6: Level:

Shrimp I and II Pollywog Turtle Seahorse Explorer Submarine Clipper Sailor Adventurer Barracuda Adult

Aqua Learning: Parent and child participation is required.

Class size is limited to eight parent-child couples.

Preschool – Level 3: Class ratio is six children to one instructor.

Levels 4 – 6: Class ratio is eight children to one instructor.

Adult: Class ratio is eight adults to one instructor.

Pollywog: Class ratio is four to one instructor. Parents are required to be in the water the first four classes.

Participants will move to the next class or skill level when all skills from the previous level are mastered. Some classes may seem repetitive, but we want swimmers to perfect their skills in order to advance safely. Please keep in mind that children learn at different paces and it’s common to repeat a class.

Weekday classes at the RSC meet twice weekly for four weeks and last 35 minutes. The session starting Monday, August 12, will meet daily on August 12–15 and 19–20, and the cost is pro-rated.

Saturday morning sessions last 40 minutes and meet for seven weeks. The Saturday, July 13 session will only meet for six weeks and the cost is pro-rated.

Classes at Alligator’s Creek meet four times a week for two weeks. Sessions last for 35 minutes.

Which class is right for my child?

To ensure your child’s success in the Learn to Swim Program, it’s important to register children for the appropriate level.

Children who have participated in the swimming program should register according to the last class successfully completed. Each child must pass a particular level before proceeding to the next.

Aqua Learning This program helps children ages 6 months to 3 years become comfortable in and around water and prepares them to learn how to swim. The class is divided into two sections: Shrimp I and Shrimp II. NOTE: Classes may seem repetitive because they are introductions to water.

Shrimp I • Ages 6 – 18 months Parent-child or guardian participation in the water is required.

The instructor will demonstrate techniques as parents learn how to safely guide children and help them advance at their own pace.

Our Mission: To remain as one of the premier park and recreation destinations within the St. Louis area and the state of Missouri.

The City of O’Fallon’s Parks and Recreation Department is committed to conducting its recreation programs and activities in a safe manner and holds the safety of participants in high regard. The City of O’Fallon tries to reduce risks and desires that all participants follow safety rules and instructions that are designed to protect the participants’ safety. However, participants and parents/guardians of minors registered for the above listed programs must recognize that there is a risk of injury when choosing to participate in recreational activities/ programs.

Warning of Risk Recreational activities/programs are intended to challenge and engage the physical, mental and emotional resources of each participant. Even with careful and proper preparation, instruction, medical advice, conditioning and equipment, there is still a risk of serious injury and/or death when participating in any recreational activity/program.
